We study two classes of open systems: discrete-time quantum walks (a type of Floquet-engineered discrete quantum map) and the Lindblad master equation (a general framework of dissipative quantum systems), focusing on the non-equilibrium…
In the framework of the Lindblad theory for open quantum systems, we determine the degree of quantum decoherence of a harmonic oscillator interacting with a thermal bath. It is found that the system manifests a quantum decoherence which is…
We derive the equations of motion describing the feedback control of quantum systems in the regime of "good control", in which the control is sufficient to keep the system close to the desired state. One can view this regime as the quantum…
